Group: Antifeatures

This user is interested in contributing to Defective by Design.

Anti-features are design features deliberately added to a design to reduce the functionality of a hardware or software system. Examples include the production of "cut-down" versions of software or hardware that is built from the same basic hardware design or code-base as the full product, except for design elements added with the sole function of removing or restricting functionality. --Wikipedia

This group is to collect and discuss antifeatures!
